I will string some thread to hang them on branches.<br /><br />Thanks for the ideas because think how pleased the parents will be that you are putting in an effort to read books, watch videotapes and do projects with their kids!!<br /><br />Be sure to write in a daily log the book titles and project themes so that they realize you are putting an effort into the activities and resources!

We are painting bird houses today! The school science teacher told us how to provide birds with simple nesting materials. All you need to do is fill a mesh bag with dried grass, short scraps of yarn and string and a feather pillow. Hang the bag in a location that the birds can safely access. Hopefully we will be able to watch the birds collect the nesting supplies. <br />Kylie, IndianapolisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-773373869463725905.post-48672251404100506932009-04-21T11:28:00.000-04:002009-04-21T11:28:00.000-04:00We paint tin coffee tins with waterproof paint and...We paint tin coffee tins with waterproof paint and let it dry.
